I’m converting to Canadian, eh

Post by Badfellow »

Imagine all the advantages of being Canadian but without actually having to live in Canada.

Think aboot it. You can listen to Rush as much as you want, go fishing for walleyes, smoke weed on the olympic snowboard team and tell other folks to go fuck themselves in a polite and civil manner. And instead of pints, you get to drink liters of beer! But, of course, without having to pay ridiculous Canadian prices for your hooch ‘cause ya don’t actually live in Canada, eh.

With a little effort and the right parka, you too could go Canuck. See you buncha hosers at Tim Horton’s.

Who, sir, are you calling a gay ass sissy yank? As a new convert to Canadianism, I am a loyal subject of the Dominion fully committed to use of the metric system. I also speak Québécois with a very snarky and condescending accent if you’d care to be impugned.

In all seriousness why are pints bigger in Europe?
This is America everything is supposed to be larger than necessary, yet the beer is puny.

you can still order a ken barlow (half pint measure made famous by ken barlow a famous British soap character,) but it's heavily frowned upon...people would look down on you heavily. in my 20 years of legal drinking and 3-4 years of illegal drinking i think ive seen less than 5 kens barlows poured.

If you want to buy land in Canada as a non-Canadian, you have until January 1, 2023 to make your purchases. They recently passed the Non-Canucker/Hoser Landowner Act or some such jabber-jawed pifflecock.
